WALTERS, J.

In this legal malpractice case, we apply the "discovery rule" and decide that the trial court erred in concluding, on defendant's motion for summary judgment, that plaintiffs claim was time-barred.

We state the facts adduced by the parties on summary judgment in the light most favorable to plaintiff, the nonmoving party. Hampton Tree Farms, Inc. v. Jewett, 320 Or. 599, 613, 892 P.2d 683
